The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne

5.0

"What exactly was the difference? he wondered to himself. And who decided which people wore the striped pyjamas and which people wore the uniforms?" - Bruno.

Everytime I read a story that revolves around the Nazi concentration camps, my heart breaks a little. I cannot, for the life of me understand why there was so much hatred bubbling amongst people back during the second world war. Millions of Jews were murdered, slaughtered and ruthlessly separated from their families and put into camps where they were starved and worked to death. My heart goes out to them for bearing the brunt of just being Jews.

The boy in the striped pyjamas will forever be my favourite read when it comes to the topic of Holocaust and the boy, Bruno will always have my heart. For those who haven't read it yet, you must do so right away. This book is a treasure that'll leave you a weeping mess. This is not a review for books like these cannot be summed in few sentences.
